The most typical type is related to repetitive body movements, followed by unexpected falls and contact with moving equipment. Prioritizing health and safety is essential in creating a positive and productive working environment. 1. According to the info chart, workplace injuries may lead to ________. A. long leave of absence at work B. tax avoidance for companies C. nationwide salary reduction D. increased mental alertness 2. Which group of percentages best fits the blanks numbered 1, 2 and 3? A. ①17%;②24%;③38% B. ①26%;②43%; ③ 18% C. ①78%;②23%;③30% D. ①39%; ②25%;③17% 3. To ensure safety in the workplace, it is suggested that one should ________. A. make themselves clean before working B. wear safety equipment when necessary C. stretch arms and legs before lifting objects D. receive proper training on taking breaks 【答案】1. A 2. D 3. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了工伤的一些背景知识以及安全建议。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据表格中“The median time lost across over 100, 000 serious claims is 7.0 weeks(在超过10万份严重索赔中，损失时间的中位数为7.0周)”可知，根据信息图表，工伤可能导致长时间缺勤。故选A。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The most typical type is related to repetitive body movements, followed by unexpected falls and contact with moving equipment.(最典型的类型是与重复的身体动作有关，其次是意外跌倒和与移动设备接触)”可推知，身体损伤应该是三者中比例最高的，其次是意外跌倒和与移动设备接触。39%、25%和17%最适合1、2和3个空格。故选D。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据表格中“·Have high risk areas clearly signed and ensure access and usage of Personal Protective Equipment.(·明确标示高危区域，并确保个人防护装备的进入和使用)”可知，为确保工作场所的安全，建议在必要时佩戴安全装备。故选B。 B I used to think I was a good person. I was caring to my friends, my partner, my family; I gave to charity and I volunteered. But when I started training to become a therapist (治疗师), I began to understand that however much we might like to think of ourselves as good people, we don’t actually know ourselves very well. I learned about how we might, without consciously realizing it, deny the feelings and motivations we consider to be bad, pushing them down into our unconscious and projecting them out on to others, so they become the bad people. I learned that deep in the human mind, alongside love and kindness, run currents of anger, need, greed, envy, destructiveness, superiority — whether we want to acknowledge them or not. It was 22-year-old Boru who taught me what it really means to be a good grown up. We first spoke two years ago. He was unemployed, living with his parents, watching his friends’ lives progress. A good grown-up, he told me, is “someone who has his ducks in a row” — and that wasn’t him. I also didn’t feel like the competent, confident grown-up I thought I should be — and neither did most of the adults I knew. I researched statistics about people hitting the traditional landmarks of adulthood later and later, if at all — from buying a home to getting married or starting a family. I recognized what made me feel like a bad grown-up: that I’ll sit with a broken fridge rather than call an engineer to repair it. Then I saw Boru again. He told me how, over two years, he’d found a job he loves, rented a flat with a friend. He’s now cycling round the world, having adventures that will keep him strong for the rest of his life. So what changed? “You start to have those conversations with yourself, and you become more of an honest person. I don’t feel like I’m hiding from anything anymore, because I’m not hiding from myself.” I think growing up must involve finding your own way to have those conversations. Boru does it on his bike, I do it in psychoanalysis, others I spoke to do it while cooking or playing music. That, for Boru, and for me, is what it means to “have his ducks in a row”. 4. What does the first paragraph imply about understanding ourselves? A. Recognizing our positive traits is enough for growth. B. Our understanding of our motives and feelings is accurate. C. True self-awareness means accepting both good and bad sides. D. Ignoring our negative traits does not affect our self-perception. 5. What critical lesson did the author learn from Boru about being a good grown-up? A. It involves having a clear career path and financial stability. B. It requires constant self-improvement and education. C. It means being employed and living independently. D. It is like a journey of self-discovery and honesty. 6. What does the author identify as a reason for feeling like an inadequate adult? A. Escaping basic responsibilities. B. Delaying reaching traditional life milestones. C. Comparing personal achievements to others. D. Investigating changing patterns of adult life. 7. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage? A. Why Hide Harms B. How to Be Better Adults C. Why Growing up Matters D. How to Have Effective Conversations 【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。作者通过自我反思，并从22岁的博鲁身上学会了如何做一个好成年人。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“I learned that deep in the human mind, alongside love and kindness, run currents of anger, need, greed, envy, destructiveness, superiority—whether we want to acknowledge them or not. (我了解到，在人类的内心深处，除了爱和善良之外，还有愤怒、需要、贪婪、嫉妒、破坏性和优越感——无论我们是否愿意承认它们。)”可知，了解我们自己意味着接受自己好的一面和坏的一面。故选C。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的““You start to have those conversations with yourself, and you become more of an honest person. I don’t feel like I’m hiding from anything anymore, because I’m not hiding from myself.” (“你开始与自己进行这些对话，你变得更诚实了。我不再觉得我在隐瞒任何事情，因为我没有隐瞒自己。”)可知，博鲁教会了作者，成为一个好成年人就像是一次自我发现和诚实的旅程。故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“ I recognized what made me feel like a bad grown-up: that I’ll sit with a broken fridge rather than call an engineer to repair it. (我意识到是什么让我觉得自己像个坏成年人：我会坐在一个坏冰箱旁边，而不是叫工程师来修理它。)”可知，作者感觉自己像个不称职的成年人，因为他逃避了基本责任。故选A。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段中的“It was 22-year-old Boru who taught me what it really means to be a good grown up. (是22岁的博鲁教会了我做一个好成年人的真正意义。)”以及最后一段中的“I think growing up must involve finding your own way to have those conversations. (我认为成长过程中必须找到自己的方式来进行这些对话。)”以及全文内容可知，本文主要讲述了如何成为一个好的成年人。故选B。 C What makes a certain piece of writing great? Well, it depends on whom you ask. There are, in my mind, three different readers: casual readers, lit critics, creative writers. They would say the following about Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre: Casual reader: Jane’s story is very relatable, especially to women who survived their teenage years. The story’s elements of romance, mystery, and coming-of-age make it enjoyable to read. Literary critic: Jane Eyre pulls inspiration from the Gothic and romantic literary traditions. The atmospheric setting mirrors Jane’s inner world and serves as a character itself. Creative writer: Jane has an appealing character and her pursuit of a fulfilling life is timeless. While Jane’s emotions are often verbose (冗长的), each word still feels necessary in most passages. All of these responses are reasonable interpretations of the great literary work Jane Eyre. What’s the difference between these three? The casual reader is primarily interested in the story’s relatability and entertainment value; the literary critic, who knows how to read literature like a professor, looks for ways to situate this work in its broader literary context. The creative writer must do both: the job of the casual reader and the job of the critic. He/she engages with the work on a personal level while also researching what makes a work successful. This is Reading Like a Writer (RLW), which means being impacted by a piece of literature while investigating how the writer did it. Successful works of writing succeed for different reasons-a distinctive voice, moving storytelling, an empowering message, etc. Writers don’t make the achievement randomly: they earn it by crafting every plot point and character, every line break, with care and precision. It’s up to you to pay attention to these craft elements, the choices the writer makes and how they contribute to the work as a whole. Yes, reading like a writer is extra work. But it’s necessary work to the writing practice. By observing the strategies writers employ to tell convincing stories or write engaging arguments, you equip yourself with the knowledge to perform these strategies yourself. 8. The author cites three reader responses to Jane Eyre ________. A. to argue that the novel is poorly written B. to explain different reading perspectives C. to prove how detailed literary analysis can be D. to show the misinterpretation by creative writers 9. According to the passage, which of the following most probably demonstrates RLW? A. Discussing fascinating plots and characters in a novel. B. Examining the literary sources a Greek classic draws on. C. Analyzing why a short story is popular and how it is structured. D. Summarizing the main events of a short story for a class assignment. 10. What does the underlined pronoun “it” refer to? A. Care and precision in writing B. Recognition of works as success C. Investigation of writing style D. Character analysis through words 11. The author suggests RLW is “necessary work” (para.7) because readers can ________. A. write lengthy novels like Jane Eyre B. gain knowledge in employment C. become professional literary critic D. improve their own writing craft 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了如何评价一部文学作品的伟大之处，以及不同读者群体（普通读者、文学批评家和创意作家）对《简·爱》这部作品的不同解读和看法。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The casual reader is primarily interested in the story’s relatability and entertainment value; the literary critic, who knows how to read literature like a professor, looks for ways to situate this work in its broader literary context (普通读者主要对故事的关联性和娱乐价值感兴趣；文学评论家知道如何像教授一样阅读文学，他会寻找将这部作品置于更广阔的文学语境中的方法)”可知，作者引用了三位读者对《简·爱》的回应是为了解释不同的阅读视角，故选B项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“This is Reading Like a Writer (RLW), which means being impacted by a piece of literature while investigating how the writer did it.( 这就是所谓的“作家式阅读”，意味着在研究作家如何写作的同时，也深受文学作品的影响)”可知，C项“Analyzing why a short story is popular and how it is structured(分析短篇小说为什么受欢迎以及它的结构)”最能展示“作家式阅读”，故选C项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“Successful works of writing succeed for different reasons-a distinctive voice, moving storytelling, an empowering message, etc. Writers don’t make the achievement randomly(成功的作品之所以成功，各有其原因——独特的声音、感人的叙事、鼓舞人心的信息等等。作家们的成就并非偶然得来)”可知，划线词表示的是“作品被认可为成功”，故选B项。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Yes, reading like a writer is extra work. But it’s necessary work to the writing practice. By observing the strategies writers employ to tell convincing stories or write engaging arguments, you equip yourself with the knowledge to perform these strategies yourself.(是的，像作家那样阅读需要额外的工作。但这对于写作实践来说是必要的工作。通过观察作家使用的策略来讲述令人信服的故事或撰写引人入胜的论点，你为自己装备了运用这些策略的知识)”可知，作者认为RLW是“必要的工作”是因为读者可以提高自己的写作技巧，故选D项。 D In the past, jobs were about muscles. Now they’re about brains, but in the future, they’ll be about the heart. – Minouche Shafik, the president of Columbia University LinkedIn researchers recently looked at which skills any given job requires and then identified over 500 likely to be affected by generative A.I. technologies. They then estimated that 96 percent of a software engineer’s current skills — mainly in programming languages — can eventually be possessed by A.I. Skills associated with jobs like legal associates and finance officers will also be highly exposed. In fact, given the broad impact A.I. is set to have, it is quite likely to affect all of our work to some degree or another. Circling around this research is the big question emerging across so many conversations about A.I. and work, namely: What are our core capabilities as humans? If we answer this question from a place of fear about what’s left for people in the age of A.I., we can end up admitting a diminished view of human capability. Instead, it’s critical for us all to start from a place that imagines what’s possible for humans in the age of A.I. When we do that, we find ourselves focusing quickly on people skills that allow us to cooperate and innovate in ways technology can intensify but never replace. A recent Jobs for the Future survey found that 78 percent of the 10 top-employing occupations classified uniquely human skills and tasks as “important” or “very important.” These, commonly referred to as soft skills, include building interpersonal relationships, negotiating between parties and guiding and motivating teams. Now is the time for leaders, across departments, to develop new ways for students to learn that are more directly tied to where our economy is going, not where it has been. Critically, that involves bringing the same level of preciseness to training around people skills that we have brought to technical skills. Ultimately, for our society, this comes down to whether we believe in the potential of humans with as much belief as we believe in the potential of A.I. If we do, it is entirely possible to build a world of work that not only is more human but also is a place where all people are valued for the unique skills we have, enabling us to deliver new levels of human achievement across so many areas that affect all of our lives. 12. According to LinkedIn’s recent research, __________. A. soft engineers are required to identify 500 languages B. A.I. will replace humans in jobs requiring certain skills C. we humans underestimate the impact A.I. is set to have D. A.I. technologies are to influence research to some degree 13. Which of the following is “a diminished view of human capability” (paragraph 3)? A. Humans are losing control of the world. B Technology intensifies humans’ cooperation. C. Humans outsmart A.I in terms of critical thinking. D. A.I. and humans are similar in their ability to innovate. 14. Leaders in different departments are advised to __________. A. teach students unique technical skills B. develop students’ soft skills for their future C. remind students where our economy is going D. build healthy interpersonal relationships with students 15. According to the writer, what is the core factor of human development? A. Practical value set on skills. B. Firm belief about A.I. technologies. C. Decisive effects brought by A.I. D. Confidence in our potential. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。根据领英最近的研究，人工智能将在需要某些技能的工作中取代人类，围绕这项研究的一个大问题出现在许多关于人工智能和工作的对话中，即：我们作为人类的核心能力是什么？ 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“They then estimated that 96 percent of a software engineer’s current skills — mainly in programming languages — can eventually be possessed by A.I. Skills associated with jobs like legal associates and finance officers will also be highly exposed.(然后他们估计，软件工程师目前96%的技能——主要是编程语言——最终都可以被人工智能所掌握。与法律助理和财务官等工作相关的技能也将高度曝光)”可知，根据领英最近的研究，人工智能将在需要某些技能的工作中取代人类。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Instead, it’s critical for us all to start from a place that imagines what’s possible for humans in the age of A.I. When we do that, we find ourselves focusing quickly on people skills that allow us to cooperate and innovate in ways technology can intensify but never replace.(相反，对我们所有人来说，从想象人工智能时代人类的可能性开始是至关重要的。当我们这样做时，我们会发现自己很快就把注意力集中在人际交往技能上，这些技能使我们能够以技术可以加强但永远不会取代的方式进行合作和创新)”可知，人类正在失去对世界的控制是“对人类能力的低估”。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“These, commonly referred to as soft skills, include building interpersonal relationships, negotiating between parties and guiding and motivating teams.(这些通常被称为软技能，包括建立人际关系，在各方之间进行谈判以及指导和激励团队)”可知，建议不同部门的领导为学生的未来培养软技能。故选B。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Ultimately, for our society, this comes down to whether we believe in the potential of humans with as much belief as we believe in the potential of A.I. If we do, it is entirely possible to build a world of work that not only is more human but also is a place where all people are valued for the unique skills we have, enabling us to deliver new levels of human achievement across so many areas that affect all of our lives.(归根结底，对于我们的社会来说，这取决于我们是否像相信人工智能的潜力一样相信人类的潜力。如果我们相信，就完全有可能建立一个不仅更加人性化，而且所有人的独特技能都受到重视的工作世界，使我们能够在影响我们所有人生活的众多领域取得新的人类成就)”可知，对我们潜力的信心是人类发展的核心因素。故选D。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Your Life Is Better Than You Think The undeniable popularity of self-help books, wellness podcasts, and happiness workshops reflects the constant human desire to make life better. ___16___ While we may have a loving family, a good place to live, and a decent job, ___17___ It’s not because we are ungrateful or stupid, but it’s because of a basic feature of our brain, known as habituation. Habituation is the tendency of neurons to fire less and less in response to things that are constant. You enter a room filled with roses and after a short while, you cannot detect their scent any longer; and just as you get used to the smell of fresh flowers, you also get used to a loving relationship, to a promotion, to a nice home, to a wonderful work of art. Like the front page of a daily newspaper, your brain cares about what recently changed, not about what remained the same. ___18___ You habituate to it — you fail to notice and respond to elements of your life which you previously found amazing. ___19___ That is, you can suddenly start perceiving and responding to things to which you have become desensitized. The key is taking small breaks from your daily life. For example, when people return home from a long business trip, they often find their old life has “reshined. ” Ordinary things suddenly seem amazing. If something is constant, we often assume (perhaps unconsciously) that it is there to stay, and as a result, we focus our attention and effort on the next thing on our list. ___20___ If it is good at its core, it may just reshine. This is why time away, however short, will enable you to perceive your life with fresh eyes — and to break up reality. A. we need to learn to better our life. B. we often fail to notice those things. C. The good news is that you can dishabituate. D. Habituation to the good drives you to move forward and progress. E. And so, what once took your breath away becomes part of life’s furniture. F. But could it be that many of our lives are already better than we recognize? G. But if we can make the constant less so, our attention will naturally turn back to it. 【答案】16. F 17. B 18. E 19. C 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了什么是习惯化以及如何改变。 【16题详解】 根据上文“The undeniable popularity of self-help books, wellness podcasts, and happiness workshops reflects the constant human desire to make life better. (励志书籍、健康播客和幸福研讨会的流行无可否认地反映了人类对生活更美好的持续渴望)”可知，人们不断追求更好的生活。F选项“But could it be that many of our lives are already better than we recognize? (但是，有没有可能我们中的许多人的生活已经比我们意识到的要好呢？)”在此处起到了一种引发思考、升华主题的作用，承接上文人们对美好生活的追求，进一步提出是否我们已经拥有的生活本身就比我们认知中的更好，符合语境。故选F。 【17题详解】 根据上文“While we may have a loving family, a good place to live, and a decent job (虽然我们可能有一个充满爱的家庭，一个住得好的地方，一份体面的工作)”以及下文“It’s not because we are ungrateful or stupid, but it’s because of a basic feature of our brain, known as habituation. (并不是因为我们忘恩负义或愚蠢，而是因为我们大脑的一个基本特征，即习惯化)”可知，虽然我们拥有充满爱的家庭、不错的居住之地和体面的工作等良好生活条件，然而下文中指出这并非是因为我们不知感恩或愚蠢，而是大脑习惯化的缘故。B选项“we often fail to notice those things.(我们常常没有注意到那些事物)” 准确地承接了上文，说明即便拥有这些美好，我们却常常忽略它们，此处“those things”指代前文提到的各种美好的生活条件，符合语境。故选B。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Habituation is the tendency of neurons to fire less and less in response to things that are constant. You enter a room filled with roses and after a short while, you cannot detect their scent any longer; and just as you get used to the smell of fresh flowers, you also get used to a loving relationship, to a promotion, to a nice home, to a wonderful work of art. Like the front page of a daily newspaper, your brain cares about what recently changed, not about what remained the same.(习惯化是神经元对固定事物的反应越来越少的趋势。你走进一个摆满玫瑰的房间，过了一会儿，你就再也闻不到玫瑰的香味了；就像你习惯了鲜花的香味一样，你也习惯了一段充满爱的关系，习惯了升职，习惯了一个美好的家，习惯了一件美妙的艺术品。就像日报的头版一样，你的大脑关心的是最近发生了什么变化，而不是什么保持不变)”可知，空处与上文构成因果关系，指出曾经让你惊艳的东西变成了习以为常的事物。故E选项“And so, what once took your breath away becomes part of life’s furniture. (所以，曾经让你屏息凝神的东西变成了生活的一部分)”符合语境。故选E。 【19题详解】 根据下文“That is, you can suddenly start perceiving and responding to things to which you have become desensitized. (也就是说，你可以突然开始感知并对你已经变得麻木的事物做出反应)”可知，空处需引出下文，指出上文提到的习惯化是可以改变的。故C选项“The good news is that you can dishabituate. (好消息是你可以改变习惯)”符合语境。故选C。 【20题详解】 根据上文“If something is constant, we often assume (perhaps unconsciously) that it is there to stay, and as a result, we focus our attention and effort on the next thing on our list. (如果某件事是固定不变的，我们通常会假设(也许是无意识地)它会一直存在，因此，我们会把注意力和精力集中在清单上的下一件事上)”以及后文“If it is good at its core, it may just reshine. This is why time away, however short, will enable you to perceive your life with fresh eyes — and to break up reality. (如果它的核心是好的，它可能会重新发光。这就是为什么离开的时间，无论多么短暂，都会让你用全新的眼光看待你的生活，并打破现实)”可知，空处与上文构成转折关系，指出如何对待固定不变的事物来改变我们对其的看法。故G选项“But if we can make the constant less so, our attention will naturally turn back to it. (但如果我们能让这种持续不变的事物变得不那么恒常，我们的注意力自然会重新回到它上面)”承上启下，符合语境。故选G。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题：每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In Favour of Simple Writing Do you edit text messages carefully before sending them? If so, you may be the kind of person who takes pride in ___21___ even the simplest message. If you do not, you may see yourself as a go-getter, one who values excitement and speed over ___22___: get it done decently now rather than perfectly later. People are constantly receiving messages, from the mailbox to the inbox to the text-message alert. What to read, what to skim (略读) and what to ignore are decisions that nearly everyone has to make dozens of times a day. A new book titled All Readers are Busy Nowadays makes the argument for being the careful kind of ___23___, even in informal lines. The authors also present well-established ___24___ that have long been prized in guides to writing. Take “less is more”. Most books on writing well advocate the advice to ___25___ needless words. The authors, however, have ___26___ the idea. In an email to thousands of school-board members asking them to take a survey, cutting the count from127 to 49 words almost ___27___ the response rate. Keeping messages to a ___28___ idea—or as few as absolutely needed—helps ensure that they will be read, remembered and acted on. ___29___ the number of the available options has the same effect, too. A link in an email, ____30____, attracted 50% more clicks when presented alone than when it was sent alongside a second additional link. Syntax (句法) and ____31____ matter, too. It is more ____32____ to adopt short and active sentences, with common words familiar to everyone. From Facebook posts to online-travel reviews, even brief, informal pieces of writing that follow these rules get more likes and shares. If everyone is a busy reader, everyone is a busy writer, too. That may make it tempting to sent as many messages as ____33____ as possible and hope for the best. But from essays to text messages organizing dinner plans, devoting time to the needs of readers has provable ____34____. If you are so busy that you write an undisciplined message which readers scan, ignore and delete, then you might as well have not ____35____ it at all. 21. A. conveying B. understanding C. crafting D. sending 22. A. care B. quantity C. simplicity D. technology 23. A. reader B. poster C. learner D. writer 24.

You’ve never seen a supermarket before, have you?” I shook my head, indicating indifference to the surroundings. “Imagine it like this,” Grandfather said, “This store’s speaking to you. It is telling you some of the new things that you’ve never learned.” I did not understand. “A trading post in a remote town only shows you a small part of the world. This store speaks of a world that is a very big place.” “So I should just forget my roots, is that it?” Angry and upset, I was expressing my reluctance to live here. “Absolutely not. Carry it with you, so that you may freely navigate in both worlds, big and small.” Ignoring words from him, my gaze fell on a woman selecting some green apples. I thought so what if it’s a big world, but I’d rather purchase whatever in a trading post for they only stocked one type of apples, at least all ripe! Noticing the expressions on my face Grandfather chuckled. He gracefully walked over to the table where the green apples were and selected half a dozen. “You’ll get a stomachache if you consume green apples,” I said. Grandfather appeared as though he was going to laugh again, but he didn’t. There was no word any more. I followed him while Grandfather filled the cart with our necessities, encountering numerous new items. I was burning to ask him what those strange foods were, and what their flavors and origins were. However, I kept it in my mind that I was supposed to be bored and uninterested in anything, thus, keeping silent all the way. As we exited the supermarket, Grandfather was smiling as if he understood some private jokes. About halfway back, he gestured for me to stop, bending over to find the plastic bag. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: He picked out a green apple. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: With his words in mind I couldn’t help taking a bite, too. _ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: He picked out a green apple. “Would you like to share it with me?” my grandpa asked, with a smile on his face. “Absolutely not! I’m sure it’s not ripe and it will taste terrible,” I replied, shaking my head. He shrugged his shoulders and took a bite of the apple. Watching his chew with enjoyment, I began to feel puzzled — Could a green apple actually be delicious? At that moment, my grandfather said: “You need to try it if you want to know whether it’s good or bad. This apple may be different from what you expected, and it might surprise you.” Paragraph 2: With his words in mind I couldn’t help taking a bite, too. Surprisingly, it wasn’t as unpleasant as I had imagined. Instead, a unique blend of freshness and sweetness emerged. My eyes widened in surprise as I looked at my grandfather, who, as if everything was within his expectations, said “Many things in life are like this. We can’t judge them only by their appearance or initial impressions. Sometimes, we need to take a chance to learn it.” I nodded thoughtfully, filled with admiration for his wisdom. The green apple taught me the importance of exploring a new world with an open mind. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者和爷爷离开了家乡，作者感到在城市里格格不入，爷爷劝说作者去适应，但作者不为所动，作者愤怒又沮丧，购物时看到有人在挑选青苹果，觉得还是呆在偏远城镇好，至少那里的贸易站里的苹果都是熟的，爷爷看到作者注意到青苹果后就选购了一些青苹果，看着爷爷推车里的一些新物品，作者感到好奇，但碍于面子又不好意思问爷爷，要走出超市时，爷爷停下弯腰去找塑料袋。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“他拿出一个青苹果。”可知，第一段可描写爷爷邀请作者一起品尝青苹果，作者认为它没熟拒绝吃它，看到爷爷吃得津津有味后，作者感到困惑，爷爷再次劝说作者吃青苹果。 ②由第二段首句内容“考虑到他的话，我也忍不住咬了一口。”可知，第二段可描写作者咬完青苹果后惊讶地发现它味道不错，爷爷借此机会告诉作者：不能只凭外表或最初的印象来判断事物，拥有开放的心态去学习、探索。 2.续写线索：爷爷拿出青苹果——邀请作者品尝，作者拒绝——看到爷爷吃得很带劲，作者感到困惑——爷爷再次劝说作者吃青苹果——作者咬了一口——作者惊讶地发现味道不错——爷爷借机教育作者——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①尝试：try sth./give sth. a shot ②出现：emerge/turn up ③冒险：take a chance/take a risk 情绪类 ①困惑的：puzzled/confused ②惊讶地：in surprise/in amazement 【点睛】[高分句型1]. “Absolutely not!

The most typical type is related to repetitive body movements, followed by unexpected falls and contact with moving equipment. Prioritizing health and safety is essential in creating a positive and productive working environment. 1. According to the info chart, workplace injuries may lead to ________. A. long leave of absence at work B. tax avoidance for companies C. nationwide salary reduction D. increased mental alertness 2. Which group of percentages best fits the blanks numbered 1, 2 and 3? A. ①17%;②24%;③38% B. ①26%;②43%; ③ 18% C. ①78%;②23%;③30% D. ①39%; ②25%;③17% 3. To ensure safety in the workplace, it is suggested that one should ________. A. make themselves clean before working B. wear safety equipment when necessary C. stretch arms and legs before lifting objects D. receive proper training on taking breaks B I used to think I was a good person. I was caring to my friends, my partner, my family; I gave to charity and I volunteered. But when I started training to become a therapist (治疗师), I began to understand that however much we might like to think of ourselves as good people, we don’t actually know ourselves very well. I learned about how we might, without consciously realizing it, deny the feelings and motivations we consider to be bad, pushing them down into our unconscious and projecting them out on to others, so they become the bad people. I learned that deep in the human mind, alongside love and kindness, run currents of anger, need, greed, envy, destructiveness, superiority — whether we want to acknowledge them or not. It was 22-year-old Boru who taught me what it really means to be a good grown up. We first spoke two years ago. He was unemployed, living with his parents, watching his friends’ lives progress. A good grown-up, he told me, is “someone who has his ducks in a row” — and that wasn’t him. I also didn’t feel like the competent, confident grown-up I thought I should be — and neither did most of the adults I knew. I researched statistics about people hitting the traditional landmarks of adulthood later and later, if at all — from buying a home to getting married or starting a family. I recognized what made me feel like a bad grown-up: that I’ll sit with a broken fridge rather than call an engineer to repair it. Then I saw Boru again. He told me how, over two years, he’d found a job he loves, rented a flat with a friend. He’s now cycling round the world, having adventures that will keep him strong for the rest of his life. So what changed? “You start to have those conversations with yourself, and you become more of an honest person. I don’t feel like I’m hiding from anything anymore, because I’m not hiding from myself.” I think growing up must involve finding your own way to have those conversations. Boru does it on his bike, I do it in psychoanalysis, others I spoke to do it while cooking or playing music. That, for Boru, and for me, is what it means to “have his ducks in a row”. 4. What does the first paragraph imply about understanding ourselves? A. Recognizing our positive traits is enough for growth. B. Our understanding of our motives and feelings is accurate. C. True self-awareness means accepting both good and bad sides. D. Ignoring our negative traits does not affect our self-perception. 5. What critical lesson did the author learn from Boru about being a good grown-up? A. It involves having a clear career path and financial stability. B. It requires constant self-improvement and education. C. It means being employed and living independently. D. It is like a journey of self-discovery and honesty. 6. What does the author identify as a reason for feeling like an inadequate adult? A. Escaping basic responsibilities. B. Delaying reaching traditional life milestones. C. Comparing personal achievements to others. D. Investigating changing patterns of adult life. 7. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage? A. Why Hide Harms B. How to Be Better Adults C. Why Growing up Matters D. How to Have Effective Conversations C What makes a certain piece of writing great? Well, it depends on whom you ask. There are, in my mind, three different readers: casual readers, lit critics, creative writers. They would say the following about Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre: Casual reader: Jane’s story is very relatable, especially to women who survived their teenage years. The story’s elements of romance, mystery, and coming-of-age make it enjoyable to read. Literary critic: Jane Eyre pulls inspiration from the Gothic and romantic literary traditions. The atmospheric setting mirrors Jane’s inner world and serves as a character itself. Creative writer: Jane has an appealing character and her pursuit of a fulfilling life is timeless. While Jane’s emotions are often verbose (冗长的), each word still feels necessary in most passages. All of these responses are reasonable interpretations of the great literary work Jane Eyre. What’s the difference between these three? The casual reader is primarily interested in the story’s relatability and entertainment value; the literary critic, who knows how to read literature like a professor, looks for ways to situate this work in its broader literary context. The creative writer must do both: the job of the casual reader and the job of the critic. He/she engages with the work on a personal level while also researching what makes a work successful. This is Reading Like a Writer (RLW), which means being impacted by a piece of literature while investigating how the writer did it. Successful works of writing succeed for different reasons-a distinctive voice, moving storytelling, an empowering message, etc. Writers don’t make the achievement randomly: they earn it by crafting every plot point and character, every line break, with care and precision. It’s up to you to pay attention to these craft elements, the choices the writer makes and how they contribute to the work as a whole. Yes, reading like a writer is extra work. But it’s necessary work to the writing practice. By observing the strategies writers employ to tell convincing stories or write engaging arguments, you equip yourself with the knowledge to perform these strategies yourself. 8.

C. Analyzing why a short story is popular and how it is structured. D. Summarizing the main events of a short story for a class assignment. 10 What does the underlined pronoun “it” refer to? A.

A. write lengthy novels like Jane Eyre B. gain knowledge in employment C. become professional literary critic D. improve their own writing craft D In the past, jobs were about muscles. Now they’re about brains, but in the future, they’ll be about the heart. – Minouche Shafik, the president of Columbia University LinkedIn researchers recently looked at which skills any given job requires and then identified over 500 likely to be affected by generative A.I. technologies. They then estimated that 96 percent of a software engineer’s current skills — mainly in programming languages — can eventually be possessed by A.I. Skills associated with jobs like legal associates and finance officers will also be highly exposed. In fact, given the broad impact A.I. is set to have, it is quite likely to affect all of our work to some degree or another. Circling around this research is the big question emerging across so many conversations about A.I. and work, namely: What are our core capabilities as humans? If we answer this question from a place of fear about what’s left for people in the age of A.I., we can end up admitting a diminished view of human capability. Instead, it’s critical for us all to start from a place that imagines what’s possible for humans in the age of A.I. When we do that, we find ourselves focusing quickly on people skills that allow us to cooperate and innovate in ways technology can intensify but never replace. A recent Jobs for the Future survey found that 78 percent of the 10 top-employing occupations classified uniquely human skills and tasks as “important” or “very important.” These, commonly referred to as soft skills, include building interpersonal relationships, negotiating between parties and guiding and motivating teams. Now is the time for leaders, across departments, to develop new ways for students to learn that are more directly tied to where our economy is going, not where it has been. Critically, that involves bringing the same level of preciseness to training around people skills that we have brought to technical skills. Ultimately, for our society, this comes down to whether we believe in the potential of humans with as much belief as we believe in the potential of A.I. If we do, it is entirely possible to build a world of work that not only is more human but also is a place where all people are valued for the unique skills we have, enabling us to deliver new levels of human achievement across so many areas that affect all of our lives. 12. According to LinkedIn’s recent research, __________. A. soft engineers are required to identify 500 languages B. A.I. will replace humans in jobs requiring certain skills C. we humans underestimate the impact A.I. is set to have D. A.I. technologies are to influence research to some degree 13. Which of the following is “a diminished view of human capability” (paragraph 3)? A. Humans are losing control of the world. B Technology intensifies humans’ cooperation. C. Humans outsmart A.I in terms of critical thinking. D. A.I. and humans are similar in their ability to innovate. 14. Leaders in different departments are advised to __________. A. teach students unique technical skills B. develop students’ soft skills for their future C remind students where our economy is going D. build healthy interpersonal relationships with students 15. According to the writer, what is the core factor of human development? A. Practical value set on skills. B. Firm belief about A.I. technologies. C. Decisive effects brought by A.I. D. Confidence in our potential. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Your Life Is Better Than You Think The undeniable popularity of self-help books, wellness podcasts, and happiness workshops reflects the constant human desire to make life better. ___16___ While we may have a loving family, a good place to live, and a decent job, ___17___ It’s not because we are ungrateful or stupid, but it’s because of a basic feature of our brain, known as habituation. Habituation is the tendency of neurons to fire less and less in response to things that are constant. You enter a room filled with roses and after a short while, you cannot detect their scent any longer; and just as you get used to the smell of fresh flowers, you also get used to a loving relationship, to a promotion, to a nice home, to a wonderful work of art. Like the front page of a daily newspaper, your brain cares about what recently changed, not about what remained the same. ___18___ You habituate to it — you fail to notice and respond to elements of your life which you previously found amazing. ___19___ That is, you can suddenly start perceiving and responding to things to which you have become desensitized. The key is taking small breaks from your daily life. For example, when people return home from a long business trip, they often find their old life has “reshined. ” Ordinary things suddenly seem amazing. If something is constant, we often assume (perhaps unconsciously) that it is there to stay, and as a result, we focus our attention and effort on the next thing on our list. ___20___ If it is good at its core, it may just reshine. This is why time away, however short, will enable you to perceive your life with fresh eyes — and to break up reality. A. we need to learn to better our life. B. we often fail to notice those things. C. The good news is that you can dishabituate. D. Habituation to the good drives you to move forward and progress. E. And so, what once took your breath away becomes part of life’s furniture. F. But could it be that many of our lives are already better than we recognize? G. But if we can make the constant less so, our attention will naturally turn back to it. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题：每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In Favour of Simple Writing Do you edit text messages carefully before sending them? If so, you may be the kind of person who takes pride in ___21___ even the simplest message. If you do not, you may see yourself as a go-getter, one who values excitement and speed over ___22___: get it done decently now rather than perfectly later. People are constantly receiving messages, from the mailbox to the inbox to the text-message alert. What to read, what to skim (略读) and what to ignore are decisions that nearly everyone has to make dozens of times a day. A new book titled All Readers are Busy Nowadays makes the argument for being the careful kind of ___23___, even in informal lines. The authors also present well-established ___24___ that have long been prized in guides to writing. Take “less is more”. Most books on writing well advocate the advice to ___25___ needless words. The authors, however, have ___26___ the idea. In an email to thousands of school-board members asking them to take a survey, cutting the count from127 to 49 words almost ___27___ the response rate. Keeping messages to a ___28___ idea—or as few as absolutely needed—helps ensure that they will be read, remembered and acted on. ___29___ the number of the available options has the same effect, too. A link in an email, ____30____, attracted 50% more clicks when presented alone than when it was sent alongside a second additional link. Syntax (句法) and ____31____ matter, too. It is more ____32____ to adopt short and active sentences, with common words familiar to everyone. From Facebook posts to online-travel reviews, even brief, informal pieces of writing that follow these rules get more likes and shares. If everyone is a busy reader, everyone is a busy writer, too. That may make it tempting to sent as many messages as ____33____ as possible and hope for the best. But from essays to text messages organizing dinner plans, devoting time to the needs of readers has provable ____34____. If you are so busy that you write an undisciplined message which readers scan, ignore and delete, then you might as well have not ____35____ it at all. 21. A. conveying B. understanding C. crafting D. sending 22. A. care B. quantity C. simplicity D. technology 23. A. reader B. poster C. learner D. writer 24.

You’ve never seen a supermarket before, have you?” I shook my head indicating indifference to the surroundings. “Imagine it like this,” Grandfather said, “This store’s speaking to you. It is telling you some of the new things that you’ve never learned.” I did not understand. “A trading post in a remote town only shows you a small part of the world. This store speaks of a world that is a very big place.” “So I should just forget my roots, is that it?” Angry and upset, I was expressing my reluctance to live here. “Absolutely not. Carry it with you, so that you may freely navigate in both worlds, big and small.” Ignoring words from him, my gaze fell on a woman selecting some green apples. I thought so what if it’s a big world, but I’d rather purchase whatever in a trading post for they only stocked one type of apples, at least all ripe! Noticing the expressions on my face, Grandfather chuckled. He gracefully walked over to the table where the green apples were and selected half a dozen. “You’ll get a stomachache if you consume green apples,” I said. Grandfather appeared as though he was going to laugh again, but he didn’t. There was no word any more. I followed him while Grandfather filled the cart with our necessities encountering numerous new items. I was burning to ask him what those strange foods were, and what their flavors and origins were. However, I kept it in my mind that I was supposed to be bored and uninterested in anything, thus, keeping silent all the way. As we exited the supermarket, Grandfather was smiling as if he understood some private jokes. About halfway back, he gestured for me to stop, bending over to find the plastic bag. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: He picked out a green apple. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: With his words in mind I couldn’t help taking a bite, too. _ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1-5.
